"Morgue officials told IPS that a local U.S. military commander recently ordered them to bury all bodies within three days. 'We got 30 bodies out of the refrigerator on Sunday, put a number on each, and put them in plastic bags provided by U.S. troops,' morgue official Kareem al-Rubaee told IPS . 'We asked families to have a look at the bodies. Then, they were buried collectively.' There is expected to be a need now to bury bodies collectively every 15-20 days in order keep the capacity of the refrigerator intact, al-Rubaee said." How long will we allow these atrocities to be perpetrated in our names?
